APPETITE

Nigel Slater s inspirational guide to home cooking I want you to take in the spirit of the recipes and to deviate according to your ingredients and your feelings I urge you to break the rules I want you to follow your appetite Inspiring and irresistible Appetite takes a hundred simple classics and casts aside the insecurities of normal recipes Ingredients are listed followed by a suggestion of how much you might need i e double cream start with 100 ml then see how you go Readers will be liberated to use their own judgement indeed actively encouraged to skip half the ingredients for pared down versions that will teach them the essence of a dish Recipe titles reflect this approach a cheap spaghetti supper a big pork roast a curry to make you sweat Slater s typically unpretentious style and ready wit put the fun back into food
